Answer

$y=3x-2$ or $3x-y-2=0$

Work Step by Step

Slope $3;$ $y$-intercept $-2$ We can simply use the slope-intercept form of the equation of a line, which is $y=mx+b$, where $m$ is the slope and $b$ is the $y$-intercept. Just substitute the known values into the formula to obtain the equation for the line: $y=3x-2$ is the equation of slope $3$ and $y$-intercept $-2$, or, in general form: $3x-y-2=0$
